operator toolbar

[keith]

Greetings, From the browser, if the operator toolbar is "open" from a previous image, then the next file clicked on is very slow to open. If the operator toolbar is not "open" from the previous image, then the file opens almost instantly but when I then extend the operator toolbar it is a very slow in appearing. I am using gc 6.0.4, the folder is on a firewire external drive and the folder is very large. This does not seem to be true with a smaller folder of files. I have never noticed this behavior before with previous versions gc. One more observation. When I run batch processes with the browser, there is a 30 second or more spinning of the wheel afterward the batch process is finished. This seems to be more true with processing of images in the very large folder of images. thanks keith imac 2.33 ghz intel core2 duo, 2 gb ram and plenty of freespace on the lacie firewire2 external drive
